I was stoked to be invited to a recent luncheon at Chicago's Luxbar, where Maxi-Cosi unveiled their newest car seat, The
Prezi, due in late summer. The Prezi is like no other car seat on the market today with
plush fabric, modern style and safety technology inspired by race car
engineers!

Here at ChiIL Mama, we've
raised two urban babies, negotiated some of the country's biggest music
fests with a double stroller, and lived the joys and pains of solo
public transit travel with a stroller, newborn and toddler.

Back
in the day, when we were looking at baby gear....then double baby
strollers and boosters, we waffled briefly between economical and
awesome. My husband piped up and said some words of wisdom that still
ring in my ears today. He said, "I don't cheap out on my work gear. Raising kids is hard WORK and it's worth the extra cash to get the right
gear that'll make your life easier."

Those proved to be words to live by. If you want a baby seat and stroller that will be a joy rather than a constant frustration, then check out these cuties.

Everyone loves prezzies and what better gift to give a new mom or mom to be...or yourself for that matter, than a brand new Prezi!
